I belonged to the Summer Wine Appreciation, even before I had internet. It was run by a lovely man called Clive Eardley. The Journals were called Deep in the Heart of Yorkshire. For a modest sum and a stamped self addressed envelope, Clive sent you one at least twice a year, sometimes more. They...

I just did a bit of research. I have all of my old Appreciation Society journals in a box, so I fished them out and found this piece in Journal No7, from Autumn 1995. I comes under the heading 'Did You Know ?'. I quote. 'Did you know that a sequence in 'Welcome to Earth' was re-filmed in 1994...
